SAINT JOHN – Todd Murphy isn’t kidding when he says he wants his company to become the Google of health care.

From his Prince William Street office, Murphy and his seven full-time staff want to change the way health care is delivered, one prescription at a time.

“I’ve a very intense and competitive guy,” said Murphy, 34, a graduate of the University of New Brunswick’s master’s of business administration program.

“I like a challenge, and obviously taking on the health-care system is a big challenge. But if I’m going to get up and do something, I want to do it right.”
